Back in the old days wells were cisterns, dried out ones with cracks they used as prisons supposedly. I think there is a biblical story, coat of many colors, were the guy gets thrown in a hole by his brothers. Also, other biblical stories were promenantly(sp, lol) around wells. idk them off the top of me head.
I usually go straight to the negative aspect(yes I've been called pessimist, but I say realist...do get to the optimist after thinking a while lol)when thinking but with wells I don't, which is unusual for me. I think of wellsprings and portals happy things.
Quoting: Anonymous Coward 32430667 Yes. That was Joseph and his coat of many colors. 17 “They’re not here anymore,” the man replied. “I overheard them say they were going to Dothan.”
Joseph left and found his brothers in Dothan. 18 But before he got there, they saw him coming and made plans to kill him. 19 They said to one another, “Look, here comes the hero of those dreams! 20 Let’s kill him and throw him into a pit and say that some wild animal ate him. Then we’ll see what happens to those dreams.”
21 Reuben heard this and tried to protect Joseph from them. “Let’s not kill him,” he said. 22 “Don’t murder him or even harm him. Just throw him into a dry well out here in the desert.” Reuben planned to rescue Joseph later and take him back to his father.
23 When Joseph came to his brothers, they pulled off his fancy coat[c] 24 and threw him into a dry well.Genesis 37: 17-24 [ link to www.biblegateway.com] Notice a lot of these stories involve jealousy? Envy... That reminds me of something.  yeah thats the one. I blame the parents for that one. Favoring children is despicable to me. When researching the bible, most of it was about inheritance...
